The most prestigious achievement for India have been its victory over polio as it completed three years without any case of the debilitating infection, which made it entitled to polio-free certification by the World Health Organisation in March.
In the month of March, the World Health Organisation (WHO) South-East Asia Region, home to a quarter of the world’s population, was certified polio-free by an independent commission under the WHO certification process. With this step, 80 per cent of the world’s population now lives in certified polio-free regions.
